What’s New In The Top 10

The class of 2026 in New England is loaded as they showed in the Future Games. We look forward to watching this group grow and showcase themselves in front of the country. 

  • Brody Bumila, top ranked player in New England. The fastball is up to 96 mph, still room to grow. He is a big time guy, committed to Texas.
  • Bryce Hill, ranked 2nd and headed to Stanford. He is long and loose, quick arm with a very good feel for what he is doing.
  • Quincy Bright, ranked 3rd, the quick armed left-hander runs it up there with the best of them.
  • Bradley McCafferty, ranked 4th, the catcher, who is headed to Duke. His game continues to evolve and mature.
  • Morrie Fried, 5th ranked player, the big and physical right-handed hitter leans on the baseball.
  • James Rabuse, right-handed arm and potential a right-handed hitting outfielder. The spin plays. 

Risers

  • Matthew Griffin, quick-armed right-hander with a feel for the spin. Keep an eye on him.
  • Brayden Edwards, left-hander, continues to mature and grow. The feel is good.
  • Ryan Ruggiero, undersized left-handed hitting outfielder. He has a super feel for hitting and how to play the game.  
  • Alexander Cantwell, left-handed hitting catcher. Shows strength in the barrel.
  • James Gilbert, right-hander headed to Elon is an arm on the rise. 

Guys We Expect To Make A Jump This Spring

  • Nick Ranaldi, coming off an injury. The big left-handed hitter leans on it.
  • Tucker Cali, good looking right-handed hitter. He shows a plus feel for the bat.
  • Mac Bianchi, left-handed hitting middle infielder. I love his game and think his best days are in front of him.
  • Ryan Kelly, quick armed right-hander who projects to throw hard as he matures.
  • Lowell Golub, right-handed pitcher. The arm is long and clean.
  • Patrick Weaving, a left-handed pitcher, electric fastball in the upper 80s, will sprinkle in the 90s at some point.
  • Matthew Shea, a right-handed pitcher, continues to impress, solid 3-pitch pitcher.
  • Roger Hill, a right-handed pitcher, good looking arm with projection.
